Few books have so successfully combined the power of poetic verse with the
beauty of aerial photography as Sabre, The Journey. The author, formerly a
fighter/test pilot in the United States Air Force, is a man whose literary retreat
was destined to become the solitary cockpit of his aircraft.
Sabre embodies the idea of man and machine joining together, not to conquer
the sky, but to become one with it in an extraordinary journey of the human
spirit; one that probes for answers to questions as timeless as the universe.
The author gratefully acknowledges the debt owed his "old friends," the aircraft
that made the realization of his personal quest possible. Nonetheless, it is man,
with his bold dreams and boundless imagination, that drives our journey through
space and time.
The reader should be prepared to share in the personal odyssey of a man so in
harmony with the world of flight it became his living poem, a poem that sends
our spirits soaring on the wings of his words.

Sabre The Journey, a project more than forty years in the making will
give the reader a sense of what it was like to fly a fighter aircraft...to see the world through the eyes of a pilot who realized, on his very first flight over the European Alps, that the gift he was privileged to experience was truly a poetry few would ever know. It had to be shared.
I would appreciate your posting a review of the book on Amazon and Barnes and Noble. Thank you.
